Comparison of the JRK with the new generation - JRK G2
The new G2 family has many improvements compared to the older JRKs. The JRK G2 drivers support higher operating voltages and higher currents, yet are smaller than their predecessors. Other features:
- Hardware current limiting - the controller limits the motor current if it exceeds a set threshold
- More accurate speed control at low frequencies
- I2C interface for increased controllability
- Possibility to measure VIN voltage to monitor power supply or batteries
- MicroUSB connector instead of miniUSB
- Speed reduction limitation (JRK first version had only acceleration limitation)
- PID coefficients can be changed live via UART, I2C or USB
The JRK G2 controllers are software compatible with the older version, so there is no need to replace the control application.
